In my previous life, I killed my whole family. In my next life, I killed the royal family.

The Jingzhao government is hearing the case in which Ding Jinxiu sued the Qi family for killing her brother and stealing his property.

This case is confusing.

Because the case kept twisting and turning, the truth that was originally believed was overturned again and again.

The most unexpected thing is that the plaintiff Ding Jinxiu was actually charged with the crime of false accusation!

In order to save her own life, Ding Jinxiu had to confess a shocking fact - Hu Dingmin killed the brothel prostitute Xiaochuan for Lu Yunfeng.

This news came like a bolt from the blue, shocking everyone present.

Everyone started talking about it. The Lu family is the number one family in the world. It has gone through hundreds of years and has a deep foundation and huge family influence.

As the eldest son of the Lu family, Lu Fengyun is even more famous. He is not only the eldest son of the Lu family, but also the future patriarch of the Lu family, shouldering the expectations and responsibilities of the entire family.

In addition, Lu Fengyun was a top scholar and had served as the Minister of Revenue. More importantly, he married a princess and became a royal consort. Such an identity and status is really beyond the reach of others. It is simply unbelievable that Lu Fengyun would order someone to kill a prostitute in a brothel.

"Could it be that Master Lu was in love with Xiao Chuan and was afraid of being discovered by the princess, so he sent someone to kill them to silence them?" Many people speculated.

Only the officials sitting in the hall knew the truth: Xiaochuan was actually Princess Yonghe.

Officials like Lord Xiao breathed a sigh of relief at this time. Finally, someone revealed the real mastermind behind the murder of Princess Yonghe - Lu Fengyun.

Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult for them to convict the most prestigious eldest son of the Lu family, the largest family in the world.

Now with Ding Jinxiu's identification, the trial will be much easier.

Lord Xiao shouted, "Come here, fetch Hu Dingmin and Lu Fengyun to the hall."

The head of the police asked: "Sir, where should we go to arrest him?"

Someone outside shouted, "They were still here listening to the case just now. They must have left not long ago."

"I saw it. Hu Dingmin left with the Lu family."

Lord Xiao said, "Captain, take your men to the Lu family to ask for the person."

"Yes, sir." The captain agreed.

He led his men to go and get the person. As soon as he left the government office, he was told by a strange man, "Hu Dingmin is good friends with Lu Fengyun. He lives in the backyard of the banknote shop in the East Market."

Sure enough, the captain of police caught Hu Dingmin who was packing his luggage in the backyard of the shop.

The head of the police said, "Sir Hu, Minister Jiang sent a few of us to invite you to the government office."

"What's the matter?" Hu Dingmin pretended to be calm.

"Your concubine has done something wrong." The captain of the police did not elaborate.

"She is just a concubine. If she commits a crime, the government will deal with her as it sees fit." Hu Dingmin waved his hand, "I am leaving the capital and going back to my work."

"Catch him." The captain was too lazy to deal with him. He waved his hand and the runners rushed forward, tied up Hu Dingmin, and dragged him out.

Lu Fengyun, who was watching this scene quietly in the inner room, felt very uneasy. If Hu Dingmin told his affairs, he would not only be ashamed to face others, but he would also lose his life.

He still remembered that it was he who asked Hu Dingmin to kill Princess Yonghe, who was a prostitute. After the crime of killing the princess was determined, he would definitely die a tragic death.

Lu Fengyun quickly came up with a solution.

He first sent more than ten servants and arranged, "Find a way to shoot Hu Dingmin, and after the success, each of you will take a thousand taels of silver and leave the capital."

"Yes, sir." The servants immediately took bows and arrows and went to surround and kill Hu Dingmin.

Halfway through, a masked man in black descended from the sky, holding an iron rod, and knocked all the servants unconscious in three or five hits.

The head constable and his team dragged Hu Dingmin over and saw more than a dozen people holding bows and arrows fainted on the ground. He was shocked and asked, "What happened?"

The masked man in black came forward with an iron rod in his hand, pointed at the people on the ground and said, "They were sent by Lu Fengyun to shoot Hu Dingmin to silence him, but I knocked them out."

"Thank you for your help, hero." The captain saluted.

Otherwise, if they were ambushed by arrows along the way, the brothers would definitely suffer casualties.

When Hu Dingmin heard that Lu Fengyun had sent someone to silence him, he was stunned and trembling with fear.

The captain of the police ordered Hu Dingmin and the group of Lu family servants to be dragged back to the government office.

Lu Fengyun didn't know that he had failed to silence him. He went to the Huiguogong Mansion and surrendered to Huiguogong. "My Lord, I've been framed by someone. I'm afraid something's wrong. As long as you protect me this time, our Lu family will be at your service in the future."

Duke Huiguo's eyes turned and he said, "Give me one million taels of silver and I will protect you right away."

"Okay!" Lu Fengyun agreed on the spot.

He came out of the Huiguo Mansion and muttered to himself: "As long as there is money in this world, there is nothing that cannot be done."

"The thing our Lu family has the most is money!"

The clear sky seemed to be celebrating his help, and several rays of light flashed across the sky in broad daylight.

Lu Fengyun hurried back to the banknote shop, and he was extremely anxious along the way, fearing that he would delay something important. When he arrived at the door of the banknote shop, he shouted at the top of his voice: "Hurry up and take out a million taels of banknotes, I need it urgently!"

"Okay, I'll do it right away." The shopkeeper agreed respectfully, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

He quickly opened an iron box and reached for the banknotes, but suddenly his body trembled as if he had suffered a heavy blow, and then he screamed in horror: "Oh no! All the banknotes are gone!"

"Ah? How is this possible!" Lu Fengyun couldn't believe it. He widened his eyes and rushed to the iron box. He took a closer look and found that it was empty.

He suddenly panicked, beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his forehead. While wiping the sweat off his face, he hurriedly ran to another banknote shop in the West Market.

However, when he arrived at the banknote shop in West Market, he got the same answer - there was nothing in the box containing the banknotes!

Lu Fengyun was completely dumbfounded. He stood there blankly as if his soul had been sucked out of him.

It took him a long time to come to his senses. He rushed back to the Lu family and went straight to the warehouse to take out some gold bars for emergency.

But the moment he opened the warehouse door, the scene before him stunned him again.

The warehouse was empty, and the mountains of gold bars disappeared without a trace.

Lu Fengyun completely collapsed, slumped on the ground, and muttered to himself: "What on earth is going on? What should I do..."

Soon, the news spread throughout the Lu family. Everyone rushed to check the situation, and after seeing the empty warehouse and banknote shop, everyone panicked and burst into tears.

"Oh my God! What on earth happened? What should we do?!"

For a moment, the Lu family fell into chaos, and everyone's face was filled with despair and helplessness.

The people outside spread a message: "The Lu family has committed a crime and is about to be confiscated. If they don't exchange the silver, it will be too late. The silver notes will be invalidated."

The front of the Lu family's banknote shop was full of people, all holding banknotes and asking to exchange them for silver.

"What on earth happened? How come all the family wealth was suddenly gone? Who did it? What should we do?" The eldest master of the Lu family was extremely anxious.

When the old man of the Lu family heard that all his wealth was gone, he felt dizzy and died of anger.

The Lu family’s world has collapsed.

They went from being the richest people in the world to being the poorest. Not only did the people outside make a scene in the silver shop to exchange silver, they also came to the Lu Mansion to make a scene.

"Give us back our money."

"Exchange for silver."

The Lu family was so anxious that no one cared about the old man's body, let alone setting up a mourning hall. The ladies of each room were busy moving and hiding their dowries and private property. Now, these ladies are richer than the men of the Lu family.

The collapse of the Lu family is just the beginning.
